Windows 7: "Do you want to change the color scheme to improve performance?"

This error has been bugging me for months now.
In certain games, in full screen mode the game will minimise and I will get the following error (See Pic). As you can see from the attached screen shot there is nothing wrong with the performance of the computer.

I have attempted to google this issue many many times but there doesn't seem to be a away to disable the notification. Even if you say "Don't Notify Me Again" it still does.

The most annoying thing about it is that the game isn't having any performance issues, and normally having the error pop up crashing the game! Kinda defeating the whole point of the notification.

Not your specs but probably more a matter of the game(s) not playing nicely with Aero enabled. Easiest solution instead of disabling Aero permanently would be to locate the exe of the game(s) that throw up the error and set it to disable desktop composition on the Compatibility tab.

"Do you want to change the color scheme to improve performance?"

Disable the "Do you want to change the color scheme"When I run some heavy load games that thing often appear and minimizes the game or sometimes when I minimize it or exit.
I tried all I could find here and in google but nothing works(except maybe disabling aero but I don't want to do that)
